The new Borderlands game follows the rise of Handsome Jack to power. Players will form part of his team and aid him in his quest to become the most powerful man on Pandora. Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel will also feature four new playable characters, Nisha: The Lawbringer, Athena: The Gladiator, Wilhelm: The Enforcer, and then.

Claptrap: The Fragtrap

And all scream Hail Claptrap!

Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel will also bring new gameplay features such as using oxygen tanks as a jetpack, which in turn add "ground pound", meaning you can land on an enemy and squash him to a bloody pulp. This won;t be a Borderlands game if there weren't plenty of new weapons, so there's the new laser-based and “Cryo” weapons.

Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel takes place between the original Borderlands game and Borderlands 2. For the very first time, you’ll play on the other side as four new playable characters fighting alongside Handsome Jack, and you’ll witness Jack’s transformation into the megalomaniacal tyrant that you loved to hate in Borderlands 2.
